Use of Tissue-Specific MicroRNA to Control Pathology of Wild-Type Adenovirus without Attenuation of Its Ability to Kill Cancer Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Replicating viruses have broad applications in biomedicine, notably in cancer virotherapy and in the design of attenuated vaccines; however, uncontrolled virus replication in vulnerable tissues can give pathology and often restricts the use of potent ...

Activation of Nrf2 signaling augments Vesicular Stomatitis Virus Oncolysis via Autophagy-Driven Suppression of Antiviral Immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) offer a promising therapeutic approach to treat multiple types of cancer. In this study, we show that the manipulation of the anti-oxidant network via transcription factor Nrf2 augments vesicular stomatitis virus Δ51 (VSVΔ51 ...

Oncolytic viruses: how “lytic” must they be for therapeutic efficacy?

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2019
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) preferentially target and kill cancer cells without affecting healthy cells through a multi-modal mechanism of action. While historically the direct killing activity of OVs was considered the primary mode of action, initiation or ...

Virotheranostics, a double-barreled viral gun pointed toward cancer; ready to shoot?

open access: yesCancer Cell International, 2020
Compared with conventional cancer treatments, the main advantage of oncolytic virotherapy is its tumor-selective replication followed by the destruction of malignant cells without damaging healthy cells.

Literature review: Virus and cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Traballo fin de grao (UDC.CIE). Bioloxía. Curso 2016/2017[Abstract] Cancer is one of the main causes of global mortality, and even though it is considered to be a non-communicable disease, several infectious agents have been found to contribute to ...

Tumour-associated macrophages and oncolytic virotherapies:a mathematical investigation into a complex dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Anti-cancer therapies based on oncolytic viruses are emerging as important approaches in cancer treatment. However, the effectiveness of these therapies depends significantly on the interactions between the oncolytic viruses and the host immune response.

Tumor dynamics model with treatments by oncolytic virotherapy and MEK inhibitors involving TNF-α inhibitors: Stability analysis and optimal control

open access: yesComputational and Mathematical Biophysics
Oncolytic virotherapy is one of the cancer treatments that kills cancer cells but leaves normal cells. Furthermore, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MEK) inhibitors boost chimeric antigen receptor expression and increase oncolytic virus entry into tumor

Oncolytic Viruses Partner With T-Cell Therapy for Solid Tumor Treatment

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Adoptive T-cell immunotherapies, including chimeric antigen receptor-modified T-cells (CAR-T cells), have revolutionized cancer treatment, especially for hematologic malignancies.

Oncolytic Adenovirus-Induced Autophagy: Tumor-Suppressive Effect and Molecular Basis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Autophagy is a catabolic process that produces energy through lysosomal degradation of intracellular organelles. Autophagy functions as a cytoprotective factor under physiological conditions such as nutrient deprivation, hypoxia, and interruption of ...

Myelolytic Treatments Enhance Oncolytic Herpes Virotherapy in Models of Ewing Sarcoma by Modulating the Immune Microenvironment

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Oncolytics, 2018
Ewing sarcoma is a highly aggressive cancer that promotes the infiltration and activation of pro-tumor M2-like macrophages. Oncolytic virotherapy that selectively infects and destroys cancer cells is a promising option for treating Ewing sarcoma.
